December / January 2017 – Planet Bean

Planet Bean is a Worker Cooperative in Guelph;

They sell 100% Organic and 100% Fairtrade coffee beans and have a deep almost relentless commitment to producer rights.

The coolest thing about Planet Bean is their deep relationship with their producer cooperative partners. Our organization has attended several presentations by worker-owner Bill Barrett in which he tells magnificent stories of triumphant cooperative networks. These admirable David and Goliath-likes tales make the hair stand up on the back of your neck and make you truly believe that there is hope in the world after all.

We are a not-for profit, volunteer based organization.
We are dedicated to:
- Promote the availability and awareness of Fair Trade products in Toronto.
- Support and encouraging businesses that sell Fair Trade Goods in Toronto.
- Assist campuses and other cities receive a Fair Trade designation.
